About me: I am from Chardon, Ohio which is near Cleveland. Chardon is in the snow belt, so we get a lot of snow from Lake Erie. I have one sister, who is a junior in high school this year. People ask us all the time if we are twins. I think it is because we look a lot alike and we are almost the same height.
I came to Penn State because I loved it here. Also, the Smeal College of Business has a very good reputation. I am in Smeal and planning to major in actuarial science. Many people ask me what that is because they have never heard of it. Actuarial Science is basically statistics, often times working with insurance. This website tells all about what actuaries are www.beanactuary.org
My biggest hobby is playing the saxophone. I have been playing since fifth grade. In high school I was in marching band, jazz band, pep band, concert band and a few others. At Penn State I have already joined FAB, Fall Athletic band, which plays for the women's volleyball games. Also I am in Concert Band. It counts as one credit and we practice twice a week.
Also, another big part of my life is my faith. I have been going to a United Methodist Church my whole life. This past summer I got the opportunity to go on a missions trip to Guatemala for one week. While there, I worked with a team helping to build a church for a small village called El Gorrion. It was a really great experience, and now I want to go again. Here on campus I am getting involved with Christian Student Fellowship (CSF), which has been really fun!
I am living in South, in McElwain Hall. I really like it because of the location. I love eating at Pollock, but Redifer is good too! I have having a great time at college so far and can't wait for the rest of the year :)
